Multi-Stream Dynamic Video Summarization
Mohamed Elfeki, Liqiang Wang, Ali Borji
With vast amounts of video content being uploaded to the Internet every minute, video summarization becomes critical for efficient browsing, searching, and indexing of visual conte…
From Third Person to First Person: Dataset and Baselines for Synthesis and Retrieval
Mohamed Elfeki, Krishna Regmi, Shervin Ardeshir +1
First-person (egocentric) and third person (exocentric) videos are drastically different in nature. The relationship between these two views have been studied in recent years, howe…
Invariance Analysis of Saliency Models versus Human Gaze During Scene Free Viewing
Zhaohui Che, Ali Borji, Guangtao Zhai +1
Most of current studies on human gaze and saliency modeling have used high-quality stimuli. In real world, however, captured images undergo various types of distortions during the…
Bottom-up Attention, Models of
Ali Borji, Hamed R. Tavakoli, Zoya Bylinskii
In this review, we examine the recent progress in saliency prediction and proposed several avenues for future research. In spite of tremendous efforts and huge progress, there is s…
Saliency Prediction in the Deep Learning Era: Successes, Limitations, and Future Challenges
Ali Borji
Visual saliency models have enjoyed a big leap in performance in recent years, thanks to advances in deep learning and large scale annotated data. Despite enormous effort and huge…
Cross-view image synthesis using geometry-guided conditional GANs
Krishna Regmi, Ali Borji
We address the problem of generating images across two drastically different views, namely ground (street) and aerial (overhead) views. Image synthesis by itself is a very challeng…
Improving Sequential Determinantal Point Processes for Supervised Video Summarization
Aidean Sharghi, Ali Borji, Chengtao Li +2
It is now much easier than ever before to produce videos. While the ubiquitous video data is a great source for information discovery and extraction, the computational challenges a…
Learning a Saliency Evaluation Metric Using Crowdsourced Perceptual Judgments
Changqun Xia, Jia Li, Jinming Su +1
In the area of human fixation prediction, dozens of computational saliency models are proposed to reveal certain saliency characteristics under different assumptions and definition…
Enhanced-alignment Measure for Binary Foreground Map Evaluation
Deng-Ping Fan, Cheng Gong, Yang Cao +3
The existing binary foreground map (FM) measures to address various types of errors in either pixel-wise or structural ways. These measures consider pixel-level match or image-leve…
Cross-View Image Synthesis using Conditional GANs
Krishna Regmi, Ali Borji
Learning to generate natural scenes has always been a challenging task in computer vision. It is even more painstaking when the generation is conditioned on images with drastically…
Analysis of Hand Segmentation in the Wild
Aisha Urooj Khan, Ali Borji
A large number of works in egocentric vision have concentrated on action and object recognition. Detection and segmentation of hands in first-person videos, however, has less been…
What Catches the Eye? Visualizing and Understanding Deep Saliency Models
Sen He, Ali Borji, Yang Mi +1
Deep convolutional neural networks have demonstrated high performances for fixation prediction in recent years. How they achieve this, however, is less explored and they remain to…
Three Birds One Stone: A General Architecture for Salient Object Segmentation, Edge Detection and Skeleton Extraction
Qibin Hou, Jiang-Jiang Liu, Ming-Ming Cheng +2
In this paper, we aim at solving pixel-wise binary problems, including salient object segmentation, skeleton extraction, and edge detection, by introducing a unified architecture.…
Salient Objects in Clutter: Bringing Salient Object Detection to the Foreground
Deng-Ping Fan, Ming-Ming Cheng, Jiang-Jiang Liu +3
We provide a comprehensive evaluation of salient object detection (SOD) models. Our analysis identifies a serious design bias of existing SOD datasets which assumes that each image…
Pros and Cons of GAN Evaluation Measures
Ali Borji
Generative models, in particular generative adversarial networks (GANs), have received significant attention recently. A number of GAN variants have been proposed and have been uti…
Visual Weather Temperature Prediction
Wei-Ta Chu, Kai-Chia Ho, Ali Borji
In this paper, we attempt to employ convolutional recurrent neural networks for weather temperature estimation using only image data. We study ambient temperature estimation based…
Segmenting Sky Pixels in Images
Cecilia La Place, Aisha Urooj Khan, Ali Borji
Outdoor scene parsing models are often trained on ideal datasets and produce quality results. However, this leads to a discrepancy when applied to the real world. The quality of sc…
Revisiting Video Saliency: A Large-scale Benchmark and a New Model
Wenguan Wang, Jianbing Shen, Fang Guo +2
In this work, we contribute to video saliency research in two ways. First, we introduce a new benchmark for predicting human eye movements during dynamic scene free-viewing, which…
